anything +27 to a -50 will fit (yes seen a set of SSR Mark 1's for sale, 15 x 12 -50 offset http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/ohmy.gif ), before you have to use spacers. Just keep in mind the more - a offset and the wider the rim the more it will stick outside the guards....... My personal favourites are Sakota Cherry Blossoms, only ever came in 14" and very hard to get.

Rays Engineering VolK Racing TE37... the Best/Lightest wheel available for the AE86.... not sure about styling though.... i think they look tough... up to personal taste though....

They come in 15*7 or 14*7 in 0 offset....

anything light, 114.3 spacing, with the correct offset to clear your axles will do... I prefer gram lights or regamasters... fanboys usually prefer the SSR's n tanabe's.

Beserker99 has excellent taste, I would give my left nut for a set of Sakura Cherry blossoms, pity they are uber rare. Drift rims they aint http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/wink.gif

Now i have a new question http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

I've never really known how people measure tyres n stuff...

like offset... what is it? where on the wheel is it?

i know nothing, about all that measurement stuff.

but i'm not that stooped that i don't know what a pair of 15's are!

can you'll help me out? Or point me to a page that does!!!

cheers http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

ok, tyre and rim measurements are f*cked because they are done in cm, inches and percentage, all on the same line.

offset... millimeter difference from the center of the rim where the hub mount of the wheel is.
ie, if you have a 8 inch wide rim, with an offset of +22, that:
8 * 25 (to get to mm), divided by two (to get to the centre), plus 22, which will get you the distance of the hub mount point from the inner side of the rim. roughly if make sure this distance is the same between the rim you have and the rim you buy, you should avoid it hitting things like your suspension or your tyre wall on the inside.

tyres are even more fun...

sorry to dig up an old thread, but i asked a question on toymods about this, but didn't really get a reply.

is there any stock rims from a heaps more common car (eg. a ke70) that will bolt onto a sprinter? i do club level motorsport and want an old cheap set of wheels to bung on for dirt events. (and for a drift practice sometime lol)

MA61 Supra wheels are 14x7 alloys they fit, other than that there is some XT model celicas that have 14x5.5s they look the same as stock crap AE86 wheels, go the MA61 14x7s

Supra MA61 15x7
